\u201cNothing can stop a team.\u201d If you said that to me a few months back, I would have probably thought: Yes.\u00a0Teamwork is powerful.<\/em> At Microsoft we\u2019re big believers in the power of teams, and we understand that successful teamwork today requires so much more than just connecting during meetings or over chat. It\u2019s about sharing crucial knowledge quickly to keep work moving forward while also keeping everyone up to speed. We built Microsoft Teams as a place where customers could call, meet, chat, and collaborate all in one place\u2014so that teams always have the critical context they need to work together, even when they need to work apart.<\/p>\n

Fast-forward to a world of remote everything.\u00a0Teachers connecting with students in virtual classrooms.\u00a0Doctors and nurses taking essential consultations online.\u00a0Factory-floor managers pivoting to\u00a0produce\u00a0much-needed\u00a0medical supplies.\u00a0And they\u2019re using Teams to do it.\u00a0We have watched as millions of you lean into, and build upon, the\u00a0Teams\u00a0technology.\u00a0So\u00a0now, at this extraordinary inflection point in human history, when I hear the words \u201cnothing can stop a team,\u201d I think:\u00a0Wow, yes. What a profound and moving truth<\/em>. And thanks to our customers, we get to see that truth play out every day.<\/p>\n

Today, we are debuting a series of stories from customers who embody the spirit of unstoppable teams. It\u2019s just real people, connecting over real Teams meetings and calls, to share the impactful work they\u2019ve been doing since they\u2019ve had to work apart. For me, their stories capture the essence of why Microsoft exists in the first place: to empower every individual and every organization on the planet to achieve more. As a platform and tools company, we’re here to help educators and healthcare professionals connect with students and patients from anywhere, to help multinationals and small businesses stay productive, and to help people everywhere keep reaching higher\u2014even in difficult times.<\/p>\n
